A bookseller bought 80 books at rs 30 each 20 books were stolen and he sold the remaining books at 5% loss find the selling pric

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

rs 38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of the 80 books = 80*30 = rs 2400.

He had 60 books to sell and made a 5% loss.

Thus his income from these books was 2400 - 0.05*2400 = rs 2280.

So the selling price of each book was 2280 / 60 = rs 38.
